In Munich, among hundreds of athletes of all nationalities, there were days of great joy. But it didn't last long. In the night between 4 and 5 September, a Palestinian commando entered the Olympic Village and took the Israeli athletes hostage. Two were killed right away. Nine more died the next day at the airport. Mennea in this unpublished documented essay reconstructs the controversial scenarios of the Olympic world and the international draws that intertwine politics and terrorism, East and West, Israel and Palestine.
